We had such a good time last year (and missed Mom so much) that we decided to do it again this year and this time we brought some friends! Packer's pre-season is a fun weekend. The game played on Saturday at noon (best timing!) and the tickets didn't cost an arm and a leg so we decided to give it a go one more time.
The weather was HOT this year - much different than last year. It was nearly 90 and we were sitting right in the sum...so I have to give these kiddos some credit. The lasted most of the game and didn't complain (too much).
Mr and Mrs. Ware joined us too - I'm so mad I didn't get a full group picture! We camped at the Brown County Reforestation park again - a short drive from the field. I'm not sure if we'll do pre-season again next year or not, but I know Ryan wants to go back up to this campground to explore some of the hiking and biking that leaves right out of the park and I'd really like to do the hall of fame and stadium tour sometime (which doesn't run on game day weekends). So, long story short, I wouldn't be surprised if we find ourselves up in Green Bay again next year...just maybe not tailgating a game.
We also did a MUCH better job at tailgating this time around. We had a fancy Bloody Mary bar (thanks Mr. and Mrs. Ware), Mimosa (thanks Mom), pancakes, eggs, hashbrowns...and we even remembered seasons salt and pepper, and garbage bags this time! It's clear that tailgating is it's own whole routine to pack for and we just quite aren't there yet. We still have some work to do before I'd call us expert tailgaters :)
This is when we knew it was time to start packing it up and heading to the cars. We were starting to loose then by the end of the third so we called it quits and started heading toward AC.
